Why favour Favours?
Just a few days ago, I was sitting late at office, waiting for my bus when a colleague of mine suddenly buzzed me. I was startled to hear that he was asking me to lend him some money! To my luck (or the lack of it?), I had almost no cash that day, and politely apologised to him. But he surprised me even more by asking me if I could arrange for it from some other person!! Again, since it was late and no one was around, I told him this was not possible, and that I am sorry.
Later on, I was told by another colleague of mine that this chap frequently asks for such a favour and never returns the money back!! - LUCKY ME:-)
Even more recently, I've noticed that our Auto-rikshaw drivers are no less at demanding some extra bucks as a favour! Anytime after 8:30 or so, whichever place you are going to, there is always a demand for Rs. 10 or 20 extra; the poor man needs to go back to the auto-stand and find a customer, you see!! And this is assuming that they have agreed to drive you to your area, which only happens after a few futile attempts!
Some people seem to have a habit of making ridiculous request in the name of asking a favour! Hope I don't pop with anger the next time something like this happens!!

HE HE,reminds me of one such friend I had in my school days who never had change to give to pay the rick and the one whom she was visiting had to dish out the money.
Whenever we went to shop she would always wait for others till they paid and then would ask somebody to pay for her saying she'd return the money later but never did.
I really dont understand what these people think that makes them do these kinda things.
That girl is still a friend and thankfully we've kinda grown up too.
